Singapore's flagship water park, at Resorts World Sentosa. Six slides including a near-vertical drop, a lazy river that runs through an aquarium tunnel, and a reef where you snorkel over rays and thousands of fish on the same ticket. It is the more expensive of the two proper parks, and the one that makes sense if you are on Sentosa anyway.
The larger of Singapore's two water parks, at Downtown East in Pasir Ris, and the one locals go to. Rides run from a four-person tube to a free-fall slide, with a wave pool and a long lazy river, and it costs roughly half what Sentosa does. Weekday afternoons are quiet. Weekends and school holidays are emphatically not.
Not a water park, but the Children's Garden here is free and gets used like one. Water jets, a shallow splash pool and treehouse trails sit under the Supertrees, with showers and changing rooms on site. Bring a towel and a change of clothes. It is the best free option in the city centre for under-twelves, and it closes one weekday for maintenance, so check first.
Also not a water park. A riverside park in the north-east with a free sand-and-water play area for small children and a long cycling loop along the waterway. Come for an afternoon with toddlers rather than for slides, and pair it with the Punggol Point boardwalk if you are making the trip out.
A children's wet-play area inside Singapore Zoo rather than a park in its own right: slides, tubes, sprayers and a tipping bucket that soaks everyone underneath it. Entry is included with zoo admission, so it only makes sense on a day you are visiting the zoo anyway. Bring swimwear and a towel.
Not a water park either, but it is where Singapore actually goes to be near water. Fifteen kilometres of reclaimed coastline with a swimming lagoon, cycling paths and some of the best hawker centres in the country, free and open around the clock. No slides, no tickets, no closing time.
Singapore is small enough that a half day at a water park leaves the rest of the day open. Free things to do in Singapore covers more of the no-cost options, places to chill in Singapore is for the slower afternoons, and one day in Singapore shows how to fit it around everything else.
